Challenge Cup Semi Finals

Live on the BBC so you have no excuse for not trading. :-)

The first is 2.30 today with Leeds v Saints.

From 1.8s overnight, Saints have crashed to 1.7s and whilst the best value is in play, Leeds at 2.5+ are outstanding value.

This is a 50/50 game and the market appears to be overestimating last weekend's results (which are always a negative in my mind anyway) and the loss of Leeds' backrow in Ali Lauititi and Carl Ablett.

Add in unconfirmed rumours that Saints' Leon Pryce is out, along with Kyle Eastmond, and you have a situation where the 1.7 favourites could have no halfbacks!!!

Should also be a great game.

Pryce is out.

Leeds should be favourites with those teams!

1.73 to 1.9.

Just wish I hadn't traded out so much at 1.8s!!!

Leeds should be favourites with those teams!

Great call. What a ding-dong game!

Well yesterday was a game for Traders with Saints going from 1.7 to 3.8 into 1.3 out to 4, into 1.2 and out to 1000!

Today? Hard to see any outstanding value. I look stuck with a Catalans HT / FT win at 10.5 which isn't bad but hard to see happening.

Hopefully the game will be close but hard to see anything but a comfortable Warrington win.
